Robots steal the show at Big Data Expo

GUIYANG, China, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — According to Communist Party of China Guizhou Gui’an New Area, locally produced robots drew large crowds at the China International Big Data Industry Expo in Guizhou, which ended on Saturday, as the province’s growing computing industry is poised to accelerate development in the robotics sector.

“We have achieved panoramic visual perception and can autonomously avoid obstacles in three-dimensional environments thanks to our long-term work in the visual field,” said Guo Di, R&D director at VMR Technology Co.

Based in Gui’an New Area — now a national computing powerhouse — VMR markets robots designed for manufacturing and logistics and focuses on machine vision. The company’s newly released OmniHead module, paired with 3D sensing, stitches together a panoramic image that gives humanoid robots the information they need for autonomous operation. 

“Many companies sell robot components, such as joints and chassis, but few have tackled the head module. We are already in talks with multiple partners,” Guo said.

VMR moved to Gui’an at the end of last year to tap the area’s computing power potential. On Aug 18, the firm unveiled OmniHead, a humanoid head module with extensive open interfaces that can fuse visual, voice and other data streams. It can be adapted to a variety of humanoid platforms.

“Globally, the robotics industry is moving toward embodied intelligence. That maturation requires vast computing resources for training, and Gui’an has that capacity,” Guo said.

As data and AI industries in Gui’an mature, more high-tech manufacturers are settling there. To date, the zone has attracted 26 data centers. The Gui’an data center cluster now exceeds 90 EFLOPs of computing capacity, with intelligent computing accounting for more than 98 percent of that.

One EFLOP represents a supercomputing performance of 1 quintillion floating-point operations per second.

Projects from tech firms including Huawei, Apple, Tencent and NetEase are proceeding. Officials said they will build a data ecosystem centered on high-quality data sets, develop industry-scale AI models, promote real-world applications and drive growth in advanced manufacturing.

Anker Unveils Six Ultra-Portable Products, Delivering Faster Charging, Lighter Travels

Featuring the Anker Laptop Powerbank and New Nano Series Lineup with Retractable Cables for Multiple Devices

MANILA, Philippines, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Anker, a global leader in charging technology, today introduced its latest Nano series lineup, alongside the Anker Laptop Powerbank – designed for fast-charging in a compact package to fit real life on-the-go; from red-eye flights and coffee-shop work sprints to road trips and your long drive back home. The lineup blends retractable-cable convenience, next-gen Qi2 wireless speed, and cool-running GaN efficiency to keep everything from MacBook Air and iPhone 16 to tablets, drones, and cameras powered up – without the cable clutter.


Anker Laptop Powerbank (A1695) – the “carry-on power station” for work trips and weekend escapes

The Anker Laptop Powerbank pairs a compact 25,000mAh battery with 165W 4-port fast charging, so you can charge 4 devices at once when you land or while you’re in transit – to give you cord-free convenience with dual durable USB-C cables. With ports supporting up to 100W, it has enough muscle to bring a MacBook Air (M3) to 50% in 21 minutes[1] – perfect for turning airport downtime into done-and-dusted work.

Cord chaos? Solved. Two durable built-in USB-C cables are always ready: a 30cm short cable for quick top-ups and a 70cm retractable cable that extends to the exact length you need, then tucks away for hassle-free use on the go. Equipped with a smart TFT colour screen and vibrant user interface, the Anker Laptop Powerbank provides real-time data, including output power, power bank temperature and estimated charging time, keeping you in control at a glance. You can also pull the retractable cable to trigger screen animations featuring dynamic emojis, adding a new level of convenience and fun. With its flight-friendly capacity and ability to recharge an iPhone 16 up to 4.5 times or a MacBook Air (M3) 1.3 times[2], this is the best 25,000mAh laptop powerbank for business travels. The Anker Laptop Powerbank (A1695) is available in Black, and retails at PHP 4995.

Anker Nano Retractable Powerbank (A1638) – pocketable flexibility with a reach that actually reaches

Designed for life on the go, the Anker Nano Retractable Powerbank makes powering up effortless, from a packed day of meetings at the office to long hours in transit at airports and train stations. Equipped with a 70cm Ultra-Long durable retractable cable, stretches across the table or armrest, then retracts completely for neat storage. Despite its ultra-compact body and lanyard for bag-free carry, it delivers 45W max fast-charging, including PPS 2.0 support – enough to bring your iphone 16 Pro to 50% in just 27 minutes[3].

The 10,000mAh capacity handles multiple phone charges during long days out or short trips, while three ports (2× USB-C and 1× USB-A) make it easy to charge up to 3 devices. It’s a flight-approved retractable powerbank that earns its spot in any everyday carry. It also boasts a smart TFT display that provides a clear and detailed view of your charging status, ensuring you always know how much power is left. Available in Black and White, the Anker Nano Retractable Powerbank retails at PHP 3195.

Anker Nano 70W Laptop Charger (A121A) – slim, stable, and designed to stay cool

Hotel outlets, Coffee-shop walls, Co-working benches, the Anker Nano 70W Laptop Charger keeps a steady, low-profile connection where bulky bricks wobble. Despite having a compact and portable build, its ultra-stable slim design still powers up with 70W high-speed charging and supports backward compatibility with 67W and 65W devices.

When you’re charging a laptop and phone together, the 65W max two-port capability gives you fast, efficient power without juggling chargers. Under the hood, Double-GaN technology with two GaN chips reduces heat at full load, earning the title of the first TÜV Rheinland-certified 70W lower-temperature mini charger[4]. The result: a cooler surface and reliably fast charging for your MacBook Air, plus everything else in your daily setup. Available in a variety of colours – Black and White – the Anker Nano Room Laptop Charger retails at PHP 1695.

The Compact Companions That Keep You Moving

When you’re indoors, the Anker Nano 45W Charger 45W (A2692) keeps things efficient even with a compact build, plus a foldable plug for easy portability. Powered by PowerIQ™ 3.0, PPS, and Samsung Super-Fast Charging 2.0 support, it adapts to almost any mobile device, while Anker ActiveShield™ 3.0 safeguards with over 6 million temperature checks per day to prevent overheating[5]. Together, they deliver seamless, high-speed charging wherever you go. The Anker Nano Room Charger 45W retails at PHP 1295, and is available in Black and White colour options.

On the road or around the house, these two complete the Anker’s latest Nano ecosystem with the same focus on speed, safety, and simplicity. The Anker Nano Retractable Car Charger (A2738) features a tangle-free with retractable cable for a clutter-free drive, alongside dual-port fast charging delivering up to 75W total output to power your smartphone. Anker ActiveShield™ 2.0 monitors temperatures in real time for safe operation, while its broad compatibility ensures fast charging for a wide range of devices. Available in Grey, the Anker Nano Retractable Car Charger retails at PHP 1495.

Anker Nano Wireless Powerbank (A1665) – Qi2 speed in a credit-card-sized body

Nights out, festivals, or just a cleaner desk setup – this is wireless that moves with you. Purpose-built for the iPhone 12 through 16 series, the Anker Nano Wireless Powerbank is ultra-slim, measuring just 102 × 70.6 × 8.6 mm—approximately the size of a credit card—so it slides into a pocket without a second thought. Its Qi2 Ultra-Fast Wireless Charging delivers 15W of power with a speed comparable to the original MagSafe, while 20W input/output via cable adds a quick wired option when you need it[6].

Its smart temperature control allows you stay cool and safer, by performing real-time monitoring, intelligently adjusting charge when heat builds, and keeping the back shell below 40°C at all times[7]. It’s the sleek, cable-free way to keep your iPhone topped up – at your desk, on a train, or between back-to-back meetings. The Anker Nano Wireless Powerbank comes in Black at a retail price of PHP 3295.

Availability

The Anker Laptop Charger and all new Anker Nano Series products will be available in the Philippines from September 1st at Shopee, Lazada, TikTok, official website, and selected offline stores.

  • Joint Innovation Development Fund (JIDF) project test beds expand beyond Chongqing, to Singapore or Chengdu

CHONGQING, China, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Singapore is taking the stage as Country-of-Honour at the World Smart Industry Expo (WSIE) 2025, spotlighting the national theme, “Digital Intelligence • Innovation • Singapore“. This recognition comes as Singapore and China mark the 10th anniversary of the ChinaSingapore (Chongqing) Connectivity Initiative (CCI), a flagship government-to-government collaboration that demonstrates the enduring bilateral ties between the two countries. The Singapore Pavilion features 12 dynamic homegrown companies[1] showcasing cutting-edge solutions in innovation, digital trade, and smart cities.

Singapore’s Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Digital Development and Information & Ministry of Health, Mr Tan Kiat How, said: “Singapore’s designation as Country-of-Honour at WSIE 2025 reflects the strategic importance of our partnership with Chongqing. A decade of collaboration under the CCI has unlocked new pathways for trade, investment, and innovation, enabling businesses from both countries to capitalise on new possibilities in the rapidly evolving digital economy.”

Highlighting Our Tech Excellence at the Singapore Pavilion

The Singapore Pavilion, led by Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA), spotlights the nation’s digital expertise and role as a trusted partner for regional growth. These deepening business links between Singapore and Chongqing forge new avenues for Singapore firms in Chongqing’s fast-growing digital economy, while facilitating the expansion overseas of Chinese firms to ASEAN and beyond.

Singapore companies such as FathomX and Sanbo will showcase their successful collaborations at the Pavilion for the first time, demonstrating the benefits of SingaporeChina innovation partnerships. Under digital trade, IMDA’s TradeTrust team and companies like Accredify will present solutions that strengthen digital connectivity and trusted cross-border flows. CapitaLand’s smart construction technologies and JTC’s deployment of smart solutions at Punggol Digital District (PDD) will further highlight Singapore’s strengths in urban innovation and management.

The Pavilion also underscores how enduring bilateral ties power collaboration between Singaporean and Chinese tech companies.

Deepening Ties Through New Partnerships and Joint Funding Projects

At the International Digital Cooperation Forum (IDCF), an event held as part of WSIE, 10 new Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) between enterprises are slated to be signed. Spanning sectors such as data security, MedTech, digital finance, robotics, international trade, and AI, these MoUs signal the continued commitment from both countries to foster cross-border digital innovation.

Among the MoUs signed, Bravox Pte Ltd, an Information Communications Technology (ICT) Solutions Service Provider, and Chongqing Sansec Information Technology, received Joint Innovation Development Fund (JIDF) support to develop China’s first “China–Singapore Cloud‑based Data Security Service Platform” in Chongqing. Integrating cloud‑based data security, data compliance, and cross‑border data services, the platform will enable secure, large‑scale cross‑border data flows for enterprises.

JIDF is an initiative established by IMDA, Enterprise Singapore (ESG), and Chongqing Big Data Application Development Bureau (CQBDB), that was first launched in 2019. As of May 2025, JIDF has funded 17 joint projects from 42 companies with a total funding value of SGD 2.17 million and RMB 13.42 million from Singapore and Chongqing respectively.

Building on this success, the 7th tranche of JIDF was launched on 30 Jun this year, which will allow project test beds beyond Chongqing, to Singapore or Chengdu, broadening opportunities for enterprises and reinforcing Singapore’s role as a partner in spurring development in China’s digital economy.

Mr Johnson Poh, Assistant Chief Executive, Sectoral Transformation Group at IMDA, said: “The new MoUs and JIDF expansion to Chengdu represent an important step in growing the SingaporeChina relationship. This extension opens new avenues for companies to scale solutions across China’s market while leveraging Singapore’s innovation ecosystem.”

Singapore and China: Building Success Together

IMDA’s presence at WSIE 2025 reflects a broader commitment to shape a future where digital innovation and international cooperation serve as catalysts for economic progress.

Held in Chongqing from 5 to 8 September, WSIE is one of China’s premier national-level platforms, created through the 2024 merger of the Smart China Expo (SCE) and the Tianjin World Intelligence Congress.

In addition to celebrating 10 years of successful collaboration between Singapore and Chongqing, 2025 also marks 35 years of diplomatic relations and friendship between the two nations.

“As we commemorate 35 years of diplomatic relations, our digital partnerships demonstrate the potential of what happens when Singapore’s innovation meets China’s scale,” said Mr Poh. “Together, we can unlock new frontiers in emerging technologies and cross-border digital infrastructure that will drive growth for both nations.”
